The bed is sturdy and
"The bed is sturdy and fairly tall. My daughter loves it. We can both get on it with no issues. I added a bunkie board and pushed it to the corner of her room. I was able to assemble it alone but would definitely advise having help. The bed will shake if it isn’t against a wall but thats the case with most loft beds that don’t have diagonal pieces on the corners. The only con is that it reaaaaaally smelled like chemicals at first."
